Finnish weavers have traditionally made Rya Knot rugs to help keep the walls and floors warm in the cold winters. I have developed this method using a continuous knot that is later cut to give a deep luxurious pile under foot. Unlimited design possibilities are achieved in the free form of knotting. The warp is durable Linen and the weft New Zealand Carpet wool that will last a life time. I used sari silk strips in this specially commissioned Rya Rug.
